There are nine forms of the Dragon
And it has nine children
In the shadow of the Sphinx, there are
Nine bows for traditional enemies
An anvil takes nine days to fall
From Heaven to Earth
Or from Earth to the
Nine circles of Hell
The nine Ringwraiths appear and vanish
Like the Six Nines in Pi.
Let us plot the Consequences of Love
against your timorous Soul
Probability says that
There will be five nines to fit the curve
The decimal must be plotted separately
Depending on your State of Grace
